| #2 Back when the fUSSR was a thing, as an amateur Kremlinologist, I used to marvel at the 3-cornered politics and maneuvering between the Party, the KGB and the Army. State-run media was a joke - "In Truth there is no news, and in News there is no truth". Totally different than here in the Home of the Brave and the Land of the Free. Nowadays, I'm not feeling quite so smug. |

| #1 WTF? So Intel Section Chief makes a clear distinction between "information concerning Russian election interference" attempts - i.e. objective facts and hard evidence - and "allegations concerning candidate Trump" - i.e. barroom bullshit and scurrilous lies concocted by one partisan activist, Steele the Fabulist. And Deputy Director overrides this distinction - again, between objective evidence OTOH and a foreign agent's tall tales OTOH - and collapses it all into one stew. Put aside the criminal aspect of this behavior, the threat to our Constitution, the contempt for law. Even if this were not illegal, is this a sober, professional, intelligent way to evaluate any kind of claim to truth? Who in his right mind would combine hearsay and ludicrous rumors with hard evidence? |
